Since the last official patch, the patch adds joystick support (windows only for now), reworks the UI a little, allows Lithosoid planets to increase the durability of components, rebalances things a bit better, hopefully fixes a Mac sound issue, and fixes a bunch of smaller things.

1.015 change list:

now stop controller rumble if paused

fixed controller rumble when turning off screen shake (Castruccio)

now reducing power load and increasing durability are toggles instead of one time things

decreased durability mult modifier per level from 0.0333 to 0.02

increased difficulty of higher difficulty levels

increased difficulty of higher difficulty levels even more in expansion (IotA)

now show and enforce level of chips so you don't accidentally create a component that you can no longer use (IotA)

Drox Operative: Invasion of the Ancients is now available for pre-order (directly from Soldak, not Steam). If you pre-order you get a discounted price and, if you want, access to the beta, so pre-order now[www.soldak.com]!

Drox Operative: Invasion of the Ancients is the first expansion for Drox Operative. Drox Operative is a starship action RPG with warring alien races, fierce space battles, a dynamic, evolving galaxy, and co-op multiplayer for Windows and Mac.
Drox Operative

Before the Drox ruled the galaxy, before they were even sentient, there were older races now known as the Ancients. Using their Operatives, the Drox crushed and enslaved most of these races. The rest fled known space. When the Drox turned on their own Operatives, the Drox were utterly destroyed. Newer races emerged and thrived in the power void, never knowing the menace waited. Seizing their chance, the Ancients are invading to take their rightful place in the galaxy, as rulers! Thirsting for revenge, the Ancients can't harm the extinct Drox, but they can crush the next best thing, the Drox Operatives.

The Ancient enemies are back! Can you defend the Drox Operative Guild and younger races against the Invasion of the Ancients?
